VPK Packaging Launches New Mitsubishi Evol Flexo Folder Gluer at Selby

VPK Packaging has commissioned a new Mitsubishi EVOL flexo folder gluer started at Rigid’s corrugating plant in Selby.

The new converting machine further increases site productivity and capacity of what is probably already the most modern and fully equipped corrugated packaging plant in the UK. Installing mirrored operations between the centrally located Desborough plant, the Wellington site in Somerset and the Selby site in North Yorkshire reaffirms Rigid’s leading position in the market.

Setting the standard in efficiency and box formation accuracy

The new EVOL sets the standard when it comes to accuracy of box formation in a single process at high speed. This feature offers added value to customers utilising high speed case erecting machinery. Its high level stripping system reduces scattering and enables optimum waste treatment. To ensure maximum productivity,  the four colour machine is also equipped with an Alliance prefeeder and end of line palletizing unit manufactured by Dücker Corrpal.

Purchase of the new EVOL is part of an order by VPK Packaging Group with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Europe, consisting of two EVOL machines and a complete corrugator. The VPK plant in Raamsdonksveer (NL) will take delivery of the second four colour case maker and the corrugator. Installation of both is expected to be finalised before the end of the year.
